My system disk crashed, but my emails were on a different disk - how do I make Thunderbird (newly installed) import old files stored on the other disk?

My system disk (C:) crashed and I had to buy a new one. Old Thunderbird was installed on disk D: and my emails were also stored on that disk, but I am not sure where. Under "Program Files - Mozilla Thunderbird" on disk D: there are a lot of files and directories, but none of them are very large, so they can't possibly contain the gigabytes of old emails. Now I installed new Thunderbird to the new disk C: and I don't know how to get old emails to show up. Please, advise...

Normally all your data is stored under C:\Users\"your windows username" \AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\profiles\"something.default"\ (This profile directory ends usually in .default)

Under C:\Program Files\ Thunderbird\ are only program files, no data.

EDIT ( "C:\Program Files (x86)\Thunderbird" if you have a 64bit pc)

Make a search for ImapMail or Mail (a directory inside your profile) on your old disk.

Let us know if you find it

Thanks a lot. I found the directory on my old disk and used ImportExport Tools extension to copy everything into the new directory. So far, so good... Thanks again.
